Earth becomes the center of the drone universe this Wednesday at Will's Pub

Ears have been ringing for weeks in anticipation of Earth’s descent into Orlando. Their distinct heavy pull leveraged expansive drone and psych experimentations in the ’90s to echo the dissonance and doom of the cosmic ether. We were all ethereally floating through life without an ear bent to acknowledge it when Earth disbanded, but guitarist Dylan Carlson set that world on blast by reviving the project in 2003.
